Thirty-eight New People's Army (NPA) rebels were killed by
Eastern Mindanao Command troopers in the first five and half months of the
year.
This was disclosed by Capt. Alberto Caber in statement
forwarded to the PNA Monday.
"As of June 14, 2015, there were 38 NPA bandits killed
while 72 high-powered firearms were recovered (during) encounters with security
forces in Eastern Mindanao since January 1,
2015," he added.
Military success can be attributed to closer coordination
with civilian communities and intensified patrol work.
This figures include the three NPA rebels killed during an
encounter with troopers from the 69th Infantry Battalion in Purok 7, Barangay
Paradise Embac, Paquibato District, Davao
City
The clash took place at 12: 05 a.m.
Also recovered were an M-14 automatic rifle, and two
unexploded improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and several backpacks.
No losses were reported among government security forces.
